We met at eighteen, married at twenty-two. At twenty-five, her childhood sweetheart returned, and I proposed divorce.
Someone asked if I was willing to let go. I thought about it and said, ...
I don't know why I suddenly did this.
On a whim?
I don't think so.
Perhaps seeing so many familiar faces made him feel irritable, and he wanted to find a way to vent, and Wang Tianfang came to cause trouble at this time?
I don't know.
As I watched Gu Lianyi move closer to me, my annoyance intensified. I instinctively turned my head away, then, to her surprise, pulled her into my arms. I then looked at Wang Tianfang and asked, "Now do you know where you went wrong?"
Wang Tianfang's face darkened further.
He didn't say anything, but I could clearly sense that he was on the verge of exploding. If Gu Lianyi and the others hadn't been there, he probably would have lost his temper by now.
But since Gu Lianyi and the others were here, she was destined to play the role of his magnanimity and his gentlemanly conduct.
Unfortunately, I don't need it.
I continued, "I can get Lianyi to grant me anything."
"But you can't."
"So, how are you going to take it from me?"
Gu Lianyi pinched my waist, but still pressed her body against mine, making her stance clear.
I endured the pain and continued looking at Wang Tianfang. "If I were you, I would know better than to let go."
"Instead of being self-righteous."
"in addition."
"Don't make a joke out of the title of fiancé. As far as I know, you've only verbally agreed to the marriage, and there's been no real progress."
"In other words, Lianyi is not your fiancée yet."
"Enough!" Wang Tianfang finally lost his temper and said coldly, "Do you know what you're doing?"
I grinned and said, "Of course I know."
"Of course I'm going to steal your woman!"
"You're not convinced?"
"Fine, fine, fine!" Wang Tianfang took a deep breath, then looked at Gu Lianyi, "Is this your attitude?"
Gu Lianyi nodded slightly.
"very good!"
"I hope you won't regret this." Wang Tianfang glanced at me again, then turned and walked out of the private room.
His last words were spoken to Gu Lianyi.
It was also meant for me.
But it's okay.
I don't care.
Although provoking Wang Tianfang would not be a wise choice in my current situation, I am even more aware of the implications for someone like him.
Even if I do nothing now, he will still keep an eye on me.
Because I came with Gu Lianyi.
The woman he considered his fiancée.
In other words, from the moment I agreed to Gu Lianyi's request, Wang Tianfang and I were already at odds; it was just a matter of how intense our clashes were.
Gu Lianyi didn't leave me until the door to the private room was closed.
At this moment, Gu Nianci, who had been silent the whole time and seemed to be thinking about something, suddenly spoke up: "Sister, aren't you afraid of offending Young Master Wang by doing this?"
"How will you explain this to your family then?"
Gu Lianyi glanced at Gu Nianci indifferently and said, "My affairs are none of your business."
"You can have a good talk with your parents." Gu Nianci's face was somewhat complicated.
"What are we talking about?" Gu Lianyi said jokingly, "Do you think I'm like you, pampered by my parents?"
"Gu Nianci, we are different."
"Besides, your marriage partner is Xu Yan, your childhood sweetheart, someone you've liked since you were little, so you don't think there's anything wrong with it."
"But I'm not familiar with Wang Tianfang. If he hadn't suddenly appeared, do you think I would have any connection with him?"
Gu Nianci fell silent.
Gu Lianyi continued, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
"Xu Ruo, let's go."
"Wait a minute." Gu Nianci suddenly stood up, her gaze falling on me. "Um, could I have your contact information?"
"I have some questions for you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Lianyi looked at me.
